Why this matters to you

As the MP for Hulu Langat (P101), Mohd Sany sits in the Dewan Rakyat on behalf of a constituency that regularly faces severe flooding, and his advocacy for federal flood-mitigation allocations — including the nearly RM500 million in approved works he cited in November 2025 — directly affects whether residents in flood-prone villages such as Kampung Sungai Serai and Taman Sri Nanding receive permanent structural protection (Source: thestar.com.my). He has also repeatedly raised road upgrade issues in Parliament for key junctions serving daily commuters travelling between Hulu Langat, Kajang, Cyberjaya, and Putrajaya (Source: sinarharian.com.my). His role as a government backbencher within the PH coalition means his votes in the Dewan Rakyat support the passage of federal budgets and legislation that determine spending on public services affecting Hulu Langat residents.

Summary

Mohd Sany bin Hamzan (born 19 December 1978) is the Member of Parliament for Hulu Langat (P101) under AMANAH/Pakatan Harapan, having won the seat at GE15 in November 2022 with a 14,896-vote majority. A former part-time secondary school teacher and the first-ever Youth Chief of AMANAH (2015–2018), he previously served one term as ADUN for Taman Templer (2018–2023). In Parliament, he has concentrated on securing federal flood-mitigation funding for the recurrently flood-affected Hulu Langat constituency and on accountability issues in publicly-linked companies.
